The most important thing I have learned is to never give up. At Breakthrough, they push you to your limits and then go beyond that. Even if you are struggling a lot with something they make sure that you have a support system that allows you to keep going. You know that there are no bounds or limits to what you can do.

— Heaven, 9th grade

Breakthrough will help me become a better person and student overall. I will be kinder because Breakthrough has a more friendly atmosphere than my school. At Breakthrough, we believe in academic success, but we don’t compete with each other. Breakthrough doesn’t compare people, rather it supports people.

— Calvin, 8th grade

Breakthrough taught me that there are many skills that you need to master beyond academics in order to reach your goals. Things like communication skills, emailing, and presenting yourself in a professional manner are all definitely important.

Being at Breakthrough for three years has given me a shine and a boost in all subjects now that I am in high school. If I hadn’t gone to Breakthrough, I would be a really shy girl. Breakthrough has given me that space to feel comfortable and confident. I feel I can speak up in my classes in high school.
